It’s Bright Atlantic Blue paint code K7. I did a base coat/clear coat on the engine, timing cover, and intake manifold.
Thank you sir. It’s greatly appreciated

I slacked off a good bit for a little while. Wife had baby #3 and I changed jobs, then the engine build for the grandpa car had to happen quick so it all put a damper on the mustang progress. We are back in the groove now, though. I’m hoping to have it running by the end of the year.
Dang..got time to cut the grass?
Im like "yeah i know...its awesome"!

I cut the grass about a month ago, it’s still green but has gone dormant. The wife does want me to finish building her pantry and move some more gravel around our French drain......but the mustang is priority lol.

You’ve always got a project man. Love the work you’re doing here. I wish I knew wiring like this though.

What a cool swap! I have to go back and double check my Russel fittings now just to double check they fit correctly or need to be milled out to fit as you did. I'm using the -6AN lines, fittings and adapters to my Holley Sniper EFI.

Did you use the bolt together adapters or the push on type with the plastic retainers?

More wiring harness work. I pulled the wiring harness from the ecu going to the engine bulkheads and the relay box. I brought all that in the house so I could work on it inside.
Old harness laid out.
New harness in there, making my connections

I need some coyote progress!
Seems like he just learned a good method to get his heater hoses connected but has been stuck working on other projects and being a courier lately.

I know, I know. I’ll have progress soon. Between the military schools I’ve been going to, and having to pull the transmission out of my Lincoln 3 times, I haven’t had much time lately. I did in fact, just learn of a clean way to get the heater hoses connected and I also figured out how I’m going to run my throttle cable. I am now currently making progress on the mustang. Just not as much as I want to.
Life 1st and buddy you are like me...lots of life! Youll get it together eventually.
